The Sherpa in Nepal are the ultimate light shoe utilizers....how about hauling 3 cases of san miquel beer on your head in your bare feet.

Watching these guys haul mega loads for the trekking tourist was very humbling.Low tech footwear KEDS,Sandles and yes bare feet is very common.

I'm liking hearing about their anatomic last with the wider toe box. That also includes the Bare-X 180 that has zero drop and no midsole...which means the shoe should last much longer.
